No Jayson Tatum, No Kemba Walker, No Jaylen Brown, Celtics will be too easy to handle for the Phoenix Suns.

On their first meeting, Sunx able to hold Celtics with a 10 point lead with Tatum and Kemba on board.

Don't risk for Moneyline with them.
Tatum and Walker played. Celtics at lead now with 10 points.
I don't think this will go the Suns way.
That's the problem with news they provide before the game. They put players in questionable status while they are totally healthy.
Celtics might win this one with Kemba on fire.

Mavs vs Lakers later. Don't miss it. A must win for the Mavs team so this game might go crazy tight.
Regarding the Mavs vs Lakers, will Anthony Davis suited up for this game? Reports are circulating that he might be playing tonight.

Yeah, Celtics already won by 13 points. Hope someone won because they are a underdog here.

Anthony Davis played a little but not well. Not very encouraging but nice to see him out there. The game is ending as I type this. A good ending so far, especially the part Montrez Harrell got hit in the face with the ball on a pass from Dennis Schroeder. Looks like Luka Doncic is going to bring home the win for the Dallas Mavericks though.
it's a good start I think, maybe he is just being cautious about his injury, physically he is really but his mind is not, I would not be surprised if the management will control his minutes because they are on the critical stage of the season they won't take the risk to injured Davis because they have bigger plans, they should minimize playing time until such time he's 100% ready.

The price of polkadots is already very high and has been pumped several times, but this does not rule out the possibility that polkadots will continue to rise and experience pumps, now is the right time to buy and invest in polkadots.
Polkadot is just getting started, with lots of things going on with the ecosystem of Polkadot, there is a possibility that it will be one of the current undervalue token to be the next ethereum, they have lots of partnership and most of the tokens is choosing Polkadot as their partners, for integrations which shows that there is a lot potential with this coin.

The New York Knicks is getting straight wins which take them into 4th spot in the Eastern Conference by beating the Atlanta Hawks today in the overtime. Looks like the few games left will be hard for those who are in the tight spot because every team right now is playing as we've never seen before.
Correct.
Even with teams at high seeds will need to take care of every games they will play.
Every win is a must to avoid the play-in tournament. Knicks might be in 4th rank but the 7th rank is just 2 wins away from them.
Julius Randle is the key player to this Knicks team which is why they are on the safe spot.
He had been scoring like crazy and stepped up his game. Then there is Rose for support and Quickley taking up a notch for every game he plays.
Knicks has a bright future for this young players.
he is a bigger version of Steph Curry, this guy has suddenly become a great 3 point shooting. On the win against the Hawks, he was shooting 6-8 from beyond the arc, if he can be consistent with that, I guess Knicks will be a big surprise in the playoffs.
They've already pull a surprised already by having a winning streak that put them in the 4th spot in a highly contested Eastern conference. And the top 3 of Eastern conference is on a losing skid, that gives the Knicks the edge somewhat.

Knicks vs Raptors on Sunday, this is going to be good, I do hope that Toronto will play their stars against the Knicks and no load management for Paskal Siakam.
This is a big surprise for a team with only good players, no stars, the coaching staff is doing a great job, and the players really have good chemistry, other people said that players who have better teamwork will eventually have an advantage even with facing a talented team, but they still need superstars to compete with the nets, but ill be surprised if they takedown the mighty nets this season.

I've been in altcoins campaign before and most of them are legit and give us the token, if you are joining altcoin campaigns its really a gamble, because as we know those campaigns are also trying to get investors and partners during the campaign period, there are campaigns on the other hand who are advertising to get more community attention, what I'm saying is buy joining a campaign in the altcoins are like gambling you don't know if it's going to be successful or going to fail, also try to search what kind of campaign you want to join, so that you will not be disappointed if they won't push through or launch.

It's coming quick, Doge will go to $3 easily in the coming weeks, then to $7 is no problem, after that it will be BIGGER than BTC,

Which means that the most valuable crypto on earth, actually admits it a no-value scam, and doesn't even hide, while all along BTC has lied about its utility

Funny the JOKE crypto is more valuable than the 'holy crypto', but the fact is the holy crypto is a worthless dinosaur propped up by a few geriatric whales; dogecoin of course is also owned in majority by just a few people, but at least they're not lying to their buyers
seriously where is this price coming from you mean the meme coin is more valuable than Tron or Xrp or even Cardano? those projects are established and have a vital role in the crypto world and yet they are undervalued, then suddenly a coin with no product just a meme could value as much as 7 USD?
this is an overhyped coin, I think they should finish the wallet first, and then show some development then we could talk about .5 USD value which is still too much.

The NBA is at fault here, they should not created this "load management" because it's hard to control it to be honest. A team will certainly find ways to preserve their players to avoid injury, especially when they are already guaranteed with the playoff spot, I think they should review this as there's a lot of criticism about this, they are making NBA soft, missed the old days, sorry.
I agree to that, it's not the players that are soft in this modern era, infact players are most explosive, can shoot deep threes, and even have the 250+ pounds body that can move swiftly, agile and fast. But it's the NBA itself for changing so much in-game decisions from regular fouls down to technical fouls.
I remember Timmy got teched while sitting at the sideline for laughing at a referee's decision.
Back in the 90's you can't get tech taunting and shouting at your opponent after a poster.
You can't really compare era's though, maybe what the NBA has done is to really help the players with all this load management, but it seems it has back fired on them. Players and fans are criticizing it.

Now the control is more on the officiating, teams can challenge a call, etc. There's a lot of changes now and the NBA has really evolved, but there are pros and cons about it.
I Thinks people now this day are easily get offended with a simple gesture, meaning they get easily agitated mentally, meaning they are not been expose to the harsh environment, that they don't realize its part of the game, people in the NBA before are more mentally tough when it comes to taunting, and physical, but yes we can't compare those before the 90's era, because of the rules that are being put to protect the players and the nba.

I think the price is just a pump because of the news circulating, and the cryptic tweets by Elon, that push the price, but other than that there is no significant development happening for the coinn, aside from wallet core development they are still far from developing into something like payments and functions to the blockchain that I think will soon be taken into action, other than that it's just because of the hype.

@wiss19, I think Curry could still get an MVP once their team will quality in the playoffs, they don't need to win a championship or be in the NBA Finals as Giannis had the same scenario in the past but he still won the regular season MVP.

Curry is on an improve level now, he can score 30 points easily, I guess that's his average now (Correct me if I'm wrong), and the way I see it, he is so happy playing and basketball seems easy for him.

As I have said before, Curry is on a personal mission to win the scoring title this year. Bradley Beal is still leading though, but let's see after this week, if Curry's incredible streak continues, he can have overtaken Beal and won the scoring title.

I wouldn't say that he is on an improve level, he is really on his prime right now, 33 years old and carrying his team on his shoulder.
Golden state might make it in the playoffs with this kind of performance of curry but, is the team management realizing that they are shortening curry's playing time in the league? if he will take the load of the team he might just 2-3 years before retiring, if you have a precious player you have to manage his playing time for the good of the team and that player, there is no sense of letting him play with nothing to loose then will be eliminated in the first round, that's a bit careless for the management.

That is a good strategy, keeping your original investment and use the profit is a good way to start, which means you will not be able to touch that money instead use the profit to increase your savings, by withdrawing and keep it in your bank, I also use this kind of strategy although a bit risky, but you have to take the risk to make profit sometimes, you have to be careful next time, it might not the result you wanted.

Nuggets vs Grizzlies double overtime. What a game! That was indeed exciting.
They just went back and forth with the lead. Jokic exhausted but still making great shots for the team. 47 points 16 rebounds. 45 minutes of game time.

Facu did pretty well stopping Ja. Barton with big shots and Dozier locking the win with his 2 high pressure free throws.
Great night for the Nuggets fan. That was worth every dollar for the ticket.  Cheesy

That was a thrilling game to watch and with 2 times OT like that, you can say how intense was the game was and at the end of the game Denver Nuggets gets the win which they likely deserved it especially when you see how Jokic handle the last minute of the game.


I wonder when the grizzlies will put star players around ja morant, the team already have some decent players, what they need is 2-star players I know it been a long time since Randolph and paul Gasol days where they played in the playoffs, its just a waste if you will not take advantage of the prime of this player he still young and will improve more.
251  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: April 19, 2021, 04:28:13 PM
Yes, that was exactly what happened. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Murray is a combo guard, right? (he can play as PG and SG)
Yes, that's correct.
But lately, he had been mostly a shooting guard although he can still handle the ball and make the play which had been Barton's job recently.

Now Durant.
Damn, this is really a rough year for NBA.
Stars are falling down and not twinkling anymore.  Grin
Perhaps the management should think of a better way to stretch the rest period of these players.
They made the game softer and now they are exhausting their players to make more money. I know they are trying to meet a deadline but if for the expense of losing more players then is it worth it?

I don't see the worth aside from  the fast roi for those franchise, but for the benefits of those stars this recent injuries not only by KD but players like LeBron, AD and Klay not benefiting the fans at all.

Adjustments should take place if the NBA management  still caring for the future of this league and the future of all the players.

Else, we will see more and more Players who will suffer from this..
Indeed a rough year for almost all NBA stars, but I think the injury Murray acquire is because of last seasons injury remember when they play against LeBron, Jamal is already injured and then he plays through, this recent injury might be since he is not totally healed, and team doctors might miss something, at the same time the level of play Jamal is doing might irritated those injuries last year, for LeBron to get injured is because he is getting old, and those years where he almost not injured are now being felt by the body.

I was not able to watch this game (Lakers vs Jazz), but did really Lebron get a T after Clarkson slap him a little?

Lebron James Got's Technical For Delaying the Game After Jordan Clarkson Slapped Him

BTW, I guess this was JC's first start as a Utah Jazz and he really did everything to win but come ups short.

Yeah, Clarkson was really instrumental in leading the Utah Jazz and force an overtime.

However, the team really come up short, KCP and Dennis Schröder, scary tandem. But I don't like the rumour that Knicks want Dennis Schröder, but are reportedly unlikely to get into ‘bidding war’ for him.

And with this win, Lakers firmly on the 5th spot, like 3 games ahead of Portland.
This match really upset many of my friend that bet on Jazz that time. Drummond miraculously show a very strong game which is sufficient to shutdown a strong team like Jazz. Actually I was surprised too that Lakers perform that well without there Aces. Ggwp to the betlords who bet on the underdog Lakers that time.  Cheesy
Jazz is really playing like a proper team, they are really good, with everyone on the floor they are going to be a huge threat in the NBA for sure. However I feel like it is not the league for teams anymore, it is the league for superstars. I mean look at teams, with Nets having so many, Lakers having 2, Clippers having 2, Bucks having an amazing one, Nuggets have Jokic (and had Murray), it is really looking weird. Look at Suns, they "look" great right? Anyone even doubts that they won't win it this year?

I mean it is obvious that they are not going to win it this year, and yet they won so many games. Which is why regular season matters but not as much as people imagine it is, obviously most of the time best team becomes the first team, but that is not required, I remember plenty of times Lebrons teams finished under first seed and still went to finals all the time.

Jazz are underrated, but the moment they won an NBA Finals, that would make this team so special. If you remember the journey of the Warriors before, during the time of Curry, Thompson, Green and other role players, you would not think they are a superteam until they won a championship, so for the Jazz, I'll give them a chance to prove because they are playing with a great team work like the Warriors did during their glory days.

They are so balance thats why they have great chances to win the championship this season but lets hope that they will have a healthy rooster up to the playoffs since if their stars and role player cannot have a major injury well chances are even more greater. For now we cannot compare them on early GSW since they didn't have any championship won together yet.
The only thing that I'm concern about is that how they are going to face a team like the clippers, or the lakers in the playoffs, those teams are more experience in the playoffs both have Leonard George, James Davis, these teams are the team to beat, if they can adjust with this team in a seven-game series then they have a chance to be in the finals of either clippers or Brooklyn i think.

it's not a slap its a tap, maybe because they are former teammates that JC wants to greet his former team players, and it's normal to NBA players maybe they thought it in the negative, and I don't think it a delay of the game, the refs just overreact with that one, LeBron is in disbelief with what happened in that play.

Instead of watching compete the main candidates to the NBA Finals, we will be watching the reserves match. The NBA must seriously consider reducing the number of games played during the season.

This might be the worst season for the NBA as the whole league has been bothered by major injuries and Covid.
Though the Lakers and Jazz had a great game tonight.
Jazz was able to pull a 15-0 run against the Lakers in the 4th to survive until the overtime. They even had a 2 points advantage at the stretch. However, they lost in the OT. Schröder just lead this Laker team to a W.
Another notable injury for KCP. I don't know whether that was just a muscle cramps or a more serious case.
I agree with it not a good season for almost all the players, they got injured and the atmosphere is really different, it might be because players are unable to go out and practice properly, which is needed by their body, instead, they have been limited contact in the offseason, I hope that the virus will end and to be able to make players have a full practice and to do their old routines that I'm sure are removed since the pandemic.
256  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: April 17, 2021, 01:15:55 PM
The Jamal Murray injury was an unfortunate event for the Nuggets and this will be a big challenge for the big man of the team, Nikola Jokic.
The season is almost ending and he is one of the top to achieve the Kia MVP trophy. Without his partner and their deep chemistry will he have the same performance to reach his goal?
Kia MVP Ladder: Durable Nikola Jokic faces biggest challenge yet

He already stepped up his game that is why he's in the MVP race. Is there more to it?
For me as a Nuggets fan, it's a no. But, he could always play at his best for every game. He's already doing that.  Smiley
The ones who need to step up are his teammates. Porter Jr. already made his move. I hope the others will follow.

I really thought that they are going to struggle without Jamal, but Denver keeps on winning with Jokic raising his game a bit. So yes it will be a big challenge for him, but since he is playing consistently, not sure so I agree that it's more of his team mates that needs to step up the plate because we are now entering playoffs and the mentality will have a complete shift. It's either others will embrace the challenge or melt under the spotlight again.
Sad to say but they will struggle soon, Jamal has a big impact on the game since the joke became a passer with Murray on the floor everything becomes easy for other teammates since the defense will need to gamble who needs to be guarded unlike now they are very predictable, yes they will win, but when it really matters they will need Jamal to be in the floor, I hope he will come back with the same energy next season.

Zion Williamson has been going off lately, averaging nearly 30 points per game and his fg% is off the charts.  He's the #8 leading scorer in the NBA now and his recent games would have him at #3 if he went at that pace all year.  I guess when people expect a lot from you, they don't show much appreciation.  This kid is having a major breakout season and it seems like nobody is talking about it.  I think next year his stats will be so good that he'll start entering the MVP discussion, then maybe people will starting putting some 'spect on his name.

He is not talk in town since the focus of media is the current happening on the teams like changing team of stars,the nets,lakers and also with lebron. And seems the efforts of Williamson has been layed off maybe he needs to create a sound on social media so the attention of people will go to him.

I guess thats quite a good numbers already to enter the discussion but pelicans need to advance maybe in playoffs which is near to them or in finals so that the name of Williamson will be possibly included to that list.


People already expecting him to do well in his career since he is a top pick of the league, zion is already a talk in the NBA world and also in the side of the fan, it's just the media are focus on the teams that have a potential to be in the finals, LeBron is in the same spot where zion is, you will be in coverage if you bring your team in the playoffs and in the finals, what you have observed is normal, we talk about zion how good he is, we even collecting cards because we know he will be same as LeBron in the future.
259  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: An obvious rigging of Sports. on: April 16, 2021, 03:05:15 PM
A professional basketball league called VisMin cup in the Philippines had a very controversial match last night as both team shows unusual and weird game in the professional sports scene ever.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/tv5.espn.com/basketball/story/_/id/31259729/gab-probe-controversial-vismin-cup-game%3fplatform=amp
Rumors said that these both teams had to rig a game because there were a huge money involved in an online betting. But, everything's turned to be obvious that the officials had to stop the game after the 1st half because they believe something's not right that's going on, and they believe it wasn't just an off night.

Here's a video clip from this match up.
https://youtu.be/uwma0Qs2-ck
(video not mine, just for clarification purposes only)
Take note, that is a professional basketball game, and they were playing like a grade schooler. The other team had shot 0/10 ft.

Some professional basketball players in the Philippines coming from the major basketball league called PBA has shared their reactions on social media.
Most of them said "these players disrespected the game of basketball."
Some said they are even lucky to be playing despite the pandemic where a lot of professional basket players has lost their job.

I personally know that something like this has been happening since before in every sport, but with this obvious is such a huge disrespect not only for the game itself, but for the fans as well. This is such a huge fraud.

Im sharing this story for everyone who doesn't believe in fixed games in sports.

saw the video and it's a disgrace to basketball and to the league, imagine taking a free throw shot using the left and right shooting hand? and a layup that is wide open, imagine what will you feel if you are the owner of the team that is playing paying them with money with that kind of performance, they should not ever play professional basketball ever again, they should be blocklisted to play in any league, with that unprofessional attitude in the court.

I am a beginner who completely wasted the opportunity to be a useful user on the forum. Registered an account since 2018 and left it unmanaged because I wasn't really interested in knowing many thing about bitcoin, the cryptocurrency before. But 2021 is a big surprise to me because I have a few altcoin that I bought since 2 years ago at a low price and now they have all given me very satisfying return. I am grateful for that.

Right now, I really want to gain experience, knowledge and skills to become a useful user of this forum. I'm trying to understand a lot more rule, but many of them are very confusing. Without having to complain, I think it's about time I understood each rule in the right way. I hope you can help guide me in a better direction.

Please tell me the correct order to start with. Can you recommend a bitcoin wallet that's good enough to use and compatible with mobile? Someone told me Electrum, is it really the recommended wallet?
I think reading about cryptocurrency is the best way to start, even if we tell you about something, it will be very hard for you at the moment, try to read some articles and books, then try to learn about tradings and how it works, experiencing something is better actually, read then apply is the one-two combination about crypto, but what particular about crypto you are interested in? you said you have some altcoins so you already have experience maybe you just need to try what you did before but now, you need to be very careful.
